Close game, but I think Figo will edge it

[Barry]

Same formation so...

Doni - Hildebrand
Ramos - Chimbonda
-Vlaar - Pique - Draw
Terry - Alex
Mascherano - Gerrard
-Essien - Gattuso - Draw
Sneijder - Iniesta ( I feel Sneijder is better as an AMF with two DMF's behind him)
Messi - Ronaldo
Robben - Quaresma
Crouch - Trezeguet

4-4. A draw!

[Nedy]

Crouch - Trezeguet


The trouble is that the wingers won't be facing off against each other, it will be wingers against fullbacks etc. I think the battles would all be relatively even, except Messi against Clichy who I think would struggle a little more than the others. Trezeguet is a striker that is better than Crouch in every way, he is a threat in many ways and I think he'd cause problemsfor Vlaar. Gattuso and Mascherano will break up most of the play for Nedy and Iniesta can help spread the ball, it's very tight in midfield but Nedy's overall balance in the team take it for him.

2-1.

I'll have to say a draw for this match probably, and since it's 9-9 currently, I shall not vote (just yet anyway).

Great match though guys.
